Does anyone know how to set up your Windows Mail to be viewed in HTML? I
imported all my prior mail from Outlook into Windows Mail and all my prior
e-mails, as well as the recent that have come through are all in plain taxt.
When I click View, there is a "Message in HTML" option, but it's grayed out,
so I can't select it. Thanks.

You can try this...
TOOLS menu|OPTIONS|READ tab

UNcheck "read all messages in plain text."

SIMPLY GO TO TOOLS-OTIONS-READ
THEN UNCLICK "READ IN PLAIN TEXT"

My mail is not taking my Address and pase word to open my mail; and I know
it's right. Thanks:
 
You can test your password by logging in to webmail and trying it there.
If that works, it proves you have the correct username and password.
One possible reason for it failing in WM is account corruption.
One thing you should try as a quick fix is to delete that corrupted
mail account, restart Windows Mail, then recreate that account.

If that doesn't fix it, more drastic measures will have to be taken.
Which antivirus are you running?
As a minimum, email scanning in the antivirus must be turned off,
although that may not be sufficient to eliminate all bad effects.
In a worst case scenario, your antivirus may need to be uninstalled.

If turning off the email scanning function does not resolve your problem,
consider upgrading to Windows Live Mail, because it is less prone to
suffering bad effects from overly aggressive antivirus programs.

Email scanning in any antivirus must be disabled, for reasons
